One of the best ways to learn a new programming language is to make small improvements to libraries as you get to know them.
I'm writing a small application in #Rust to tidy up GPX tracks saved from my phone, remove personally identifying data and eliminate redundant points on a track. I saw a couple of opportunities for minor improvement in the Rust gpx library that I'm using so I made a quick PR: https://github.com/georust/gpx/pull/110
The application itself will be published once it's a bit more ready.

Not a huge fan of the monopoly GitHub has with open source projects, and with them slowly but surely becoming more and more gobbled up by Microsoft, are there other alternatives? I saw https://codeberg.org/ and that looks interesting, I'm curious about what other people think 🤔
